Have a great week, everyone! May Iran be victorious in kicking the empire out of West Asia!
As always, communism will win.
Thank you, inshallah! You too!
We had a party meeting regarding Cuba and we will send a solidarity team soon so we now have to get as many supplies as we can. Medical supplies, gardening supplies and seeds, bike supplies, whatever you can think of.
We have had close relationships with the Cuban government for decades now and it’s good to see that we can keep up the solidarity between us. They often help out with our party’s free healthcare clinics throughout the country and they also secretly supply our yearly festival with Cuban rum lmao.
Thank you for helping our Cuban comrades!
If possible, check with your org if they can bring solar generators and panels as well! That is urgently needed.
I think it’s starting to set in for me that the war may go on for months or more. The duplicitous nature of both the current US admin and the zionist entity means it’s essentially impossible to have peace talks. Iran’s battle is going to be (with the assistance of other resistance forces in the region) to evict colonialism and imperialism from the region to the extent that peace is even possible and safety is remotely achievable. Without that, it’s just Trump tweeting about talks while greenlighting another attack on civilian infrastructure, or the zionist entity grandstanding about ceasefires and then violating said ceasefires endlessly. Things are at a point where there is nothing really to talk about. The colonial/western presence in the region cannot be trusted for even a week at a time to not work on something violent.
Two and a half year of genocide and nothing happens in our Jewish district, but the day military people get stationed there, all of a sudden a car gets set on fire. What a coincidence!
Media says an ‘antisemitic terrorist group’ claimed the attack but they cannot even be arsed to say who it is supposed to be.
The army has been deployed in the Jewish district in my city to protect them. Two and a half year of genocide has sparked zero incidents and yet tax payer money will be spend this way. I have to walk past a hundred dudes equiped with machine guns when I go to work now.
I wear a keffiyeh sometimes so I guess I will leave it at home for now
and there’s the confession. how does it feel to terrorize a whole district with a square of fabric?
I have never gotten a negative response honestly. That’s the thing, the whole Palestina movement and the Jewish people here have never had a clash because it was never about targeting Jewish people.
So much for the “checks and balances” of the US system lol
You mean the checks contributing to the balance in the politicians bank accounts?
Just posting to say I’m alive, just life being rough. Reading your posts still keeps me positive.
Good to see you alive
Glad to be here
Glad to see you around, and I hope life turns up for you swiftly.
I’m sure it will friend, and thanks for the kind words
Glad you’re with us, comrade!
Thank you comrade Maeve!
You’re welcome! Thank you for staying here!
🫵 You WILL have hope, comrade.
I have much hope, but it does not quell the fear. I wish us all great bravery.
Anyone else feel like an anomaly? Like they’re not supposed to be here, or that something went wrong and you’re a byproduct.
I used to like being called wierd, but…there’s a certain feel to it now. Like I’m almost alien. Maybe it’s just that I haven’t found “my people” (even in my organization that I’m in) but…idk.
I’m not sure if I relate in those words. I don’t view myself as a mistake or something. But I have for various reasons spent pretty much my whole life feeling like an outsider in one way or another. I do wonder sometimes though, if I would still feel that way if I were living in a communal society that is more oriented around getting people’s needs met. It’s maybe not such a bad thing that I don’t feel like I belong in the horrible culture that is the US.
Yup. I’m not supposed to fit in! What s relief!
Feeling like/being described as/telling people they are an alien is a common theme with autistic people. My cousin and I were both 99% we were aliens between age 8-12. Just saying.
there was something about being refugees from the future or something like that, about revolutionary spirits who have aspirations beyond what we may achieve in our own lifetimes (like full communism, or full gender equality even). if i ever find the quote, i’ll send it straight to you
How long before western countries will introduce payment plans on gas lmao
I’m guessing we’ll see rationing first.
Klarna at the pump!
i just keep reading klana

Also for some reason I hate the fact ai is pushed to really just compliment you all the time. I knows there’s prompting thay might fix thid but I don’t use it enough to bother with it. But even just using deepseek, having it go “oh that’s so interesting blah blah *blah” just makes my skin crawl for some reason.
And I’m not trying to be “ohhh I’m so humble” or whatever. Its just icky to me for some reason
no you’re right, it can be pretty sycophantic. It sounds like a stalker or something lol. I feel like I do get more pushback w/ Deepseek than I had a year ago and it isn’t quite as big of a yesman, but there’s absolutely room for improvement. It’d be cool if you could eventually pre-load certain prompts to make those customizations. You can just copy paste it I guess but that sounds tedious.
I read somewhere that having a set of pre-loaded prompt modifiers is something Deepseek is working on.
Yeah that’s completely normal to hate. The sycophancy used to be way worse too, now it’s less so but some models are worse than others.
Google never complements you so why should AI is my somewhat cranky take
MAGDA: Make America Great Depression Again!
I hope you all have a nice week :D
You too comrade!
Thank you comrade, you too!
You too
Thank you comrade oppo!
Hey Oppo, how is the new job?
Have a nice week! ʕ̯•͡ˑ͓•̯᷅ʔ
I don’t know either lol. Cute though :)
Thank you! I hope everyone stays safe, fed, relatively stable/positive, sheltered. Love all of you to the moon and back! 💗
Tried to take a walk in the park to clear my mind but the park was so busy with people, cyclists and joggers that I couldn’t relax. All the good benches away from the paths were taken as well. I came back home even more overstimulated. I stayed in a small village recently where you could just walk in the forest without seeing anybody which was great. I could just walk without the fear of judgement or invasions of personal space. I really need that. Especially since I’m grieving and don’t like seeing people just living life normally, while I’m broken inside.
City life innit? It can be difficult to be alone and it can be borderline torture when over stimulated.
I think that on some biological level people aren’t meant for city life
